Chapter 440 Red Dot Package

Just when Arsenal fans and players thought that Manchester United would collapse under their offensive and they could easily win Manchester United.

Manchester United suddenly launched a sharp counterattack!

No one expected it.

Manchester United, who was pinned to the ground and beaten by Arsenal, could only cover their heads with their hands in embarrassment before, shrinking and being beaten, but they were able to suddenly stand up under such circumstances and press Arsenal back. Under his body, he raised his fists and greeted Arsenal's vital points...

This is amazing.

So when Manchester United's counterattack hit the Arsenal goal, many Arsenal fans were still stunned and couldn't believe it - Nicky had already reached the top of the penalty arc!

"Rooney! He is dribbling the ball! God, he is so fast! You can't tell he is a 31-year-old man at all!"

"There are no Manchester United players around Rooney, and he lacks support... But that's not a problem! Because... Arsenal doesn't have many players!"

"Arsenal were too impatient. They were in a hurry to score, but they forgot about the space behind them... allowing Manchester United to attack the city with just one counterattack!"

The commentator obviously forgot that he had previously praised Arsenal's offensive attack, which overwhelmed Manchester United...

Amid the exclamations of the commentators, Rooney had faced Arsenal's last defender, centre-back Alderweireld.

Because Alderweireld is slow, he always stays in the backcourt when the team presses hard.

Van Dijk had just stepped up to support the attack, and he even rushed into the penalty area to grab points.

Now he has tasted the bitter consequences of his actions and is desperately chasing after him.

The defense can only rely on Alderweireld.

Rooney didn't have many fancy fake moves when facing Alderweireld. He just pushed the football to the side and then accelerated the ball!

Alderweireld was helpless against such a simple action from Rooney. He desperately stretched out his hand, trying to pull Rooney down.

I don’t know if it’s because he has long hands or because he’s just lucky…

Maybe it's bad luck?

Anyway, he really grabbed Rooney's clothes, and then without caring about anything else, he pulled down hard!

Rooney, who had already rushed into the penalty area, fell to the ground!

Referee Webb's whistle sounded particularly harsh over the noisy Emirates Stadium.

Penalty kick!

Rooney fell to the ground and rolled around a few times before he relieved himself of the force.

As he rolled, he heard the harsh whistle, and now his first reaction was to look back at the referee.

I found that the referee was running towards the penalty area and pointed at the same time...

Penalty kick!

He succeeded!

He raised his arms and jumped up from the ground, then shouted!

It was as if he had scored.

In fact, if he really wanted to break through just now, Alderweireld couldn't hold his clothes back. He could easily get past Alderweireld and then face Szczesny. He also had full strength. Confidence drives the football.

But when he caught sight of Alderweireld reaching out from the corner of his eye, he suddenly changed his mind.

If I just put the football in, the blow to Arsenal might not be big enough.

They were fully staffed and at home. With more than 70 minutes left in the game, they had a chance to come back.

Leading by just one goal is not safe for Manchester United.

But after scoring this goal, Arsenal will definitely improve its defense level. It will not be easy for Manchester United to have such a good counterattack opportunity.

Maybe this goal is Manchester United's only goal in this game.

How can we maximize the benefits for Manchester United?

A goal would ideally leave Arsenal with one less player, and one less centre-back, which would leave them with more holes in their defense...

Even if Wenger made adjustments and replaced Koscielny.

Also remove an offensive player, so that the pressure on Manchester United's defense is reduced.

This will give Manchester United more opportunities to attack.

In such a short period of time, Rooney made a decision calmly.

He deliberately slowed down, and Alderweireld did not disappoint him, firmly grabbing the hem of his clothes.

Everything after that is too simple.

Because Alderweireld did make a pulling move, which was very obvious, no one can say that Rooney was diving.

The flagrant foul blocked Manchester United's attack, and Alderweireld was the last link in Arsenal's defense. If he was broken through, Rooney could directly face the goalkeeper.

Now that this opportunity is gone, the punishment will naturally be severe.

Referee Weber ran up to Alderweireld and took out a red card from his breast pocket!

"Red card!"

"Alderweireld received a heavy penalty for this foul!"

"It's not just a red card... Alderweireld's foul caused him to leave the field and gave Manchester United a penalty! Arsenal's start couldn't be worse than this!"

Although the situation suddenly became unfavorable for Arsenal.

Arsenal's strength makes many games lose suspense and meaning.

These narrators also find it boring.

But now Manchester United's tenacity and hard work have finally made the game suspenseful. They will be more motivated to explain such a game!

Although Alderweireld's foul was not controversial, Arsenal's players rushed forward and surrounded Webber to protest. Their reason was that Rooney had dived.

This reason is really untenable.

The protests by Arsenal players were ineffective.

United were awarded a penalty and Alderweireld had to come off.

The Arsenal fans in the stands didn't care so much. They raised their middle fingers at Webber. Many Arsenal fans were still scolding him, "Everyone knows that Webber is a Manchester United fan! Damn it! He shouldn't be allowed to enforce the law." A game!”

These sounds would not reach Weber's ears.

He was standing on the penalty spot, urging the Arsenal players to exit the penalty area so that Manchester United could take the penalty.

The player who took the penalty kick was Rooney.

When he walked to the penalty spot with the football in his arms, the Arsenal fans in the stands behind the goal booed loudly.

But this kind of scene is trivial to Rooney.

What scene has he not seen in his career?

He won't be crushed by such pressure.

He placed the football, then stepped away, waiting for the referee's whistle to sound again.

Everyone on Manchester United's bench and coaching bench stretched their necks and leaned out to look at Arsenal's goal.

No one noticed that Mourinho, who was sitting motionless on the coaching bench, suddenly clenched his hands into fists on his knees...

The entire Manchester United coaching bench and bench, except for Mourinho, all stood up. They stretched their necks and leaned out. Some anxious people simply rushed under the coaching bench, waiting to cheer and celebrate. . .

Rooney won this great opportunity for Manchester United.

This penalty not only meant that Manchester United could lead Arsenal by one goal, but the most important thing was that Alderweireld was taken off the field.

That leaves Arsenal with one less person.

There is still a long time to come. Arsenal, with one less player, will have to contend with Manchester United for more than 70 minutes. No one thinks that their physical fitness can sustain it for such a long time without problems.

As long as the ball goes into Manchester United, they can retract directly and continue to defend.

Then wait for Arsenal's physical problems to arise.                         �����������������������������������������������������������������������������​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​?

Mourinho sat on the coaching bench, he was not as excited as others.

But no one noticed his hands.

The hands on his knees had been clenched into two fists at some point.

Rooney stood on the line of the penalty area, turning a deaf ear to the curses and boos directed at him from the stands, and did not look at the fans behind the goal.

He raised his head, but his eyes were focused on the goal.

He is waiting for the referee's whistle.

Alderweireld had already accepted his fate and reluctantly bid farewell to the stadium.

However, he did not return directly to the locker room. He stood at the entrance of the passage and looked around.

He wanted to see the result of the penalty kick.

At the price of a red card, isn't what he wants just to give Szczesny, a goalkeeper who is good at taking penalty kicks, a chance?

As long as Arsenal didn't concede a goal, I would feel more at ease even if I was no longer on the court.

The referee's whistle finally sounded, Rooney took a run and then kicked the football.

The football did not fly, but flew close to the turf towards the lower left corner of the goal!

This is the most annoying angle for goalkeepers!

Because not only does the center of gravity have to be lowered, but it also has to be thrown far enough.

But this kind of shot is also very likely to miss, because free throw players often pursue angles too much.

Such a thing did not happen to Rooney today. The football he played was accurate and fast.

Although Szczesny judged the right direction, the distance was too far and he was beyond his reach.

I can only watch the football flying into the goal against the goal post...

"The ball went in!!"

The commentator roared, igniting the passion of the Manchester United fans.

The few Manchester United fans in the stands of the Emirates Stadium and the huge number of Manchester United fans in front of the TV gave a huge cheer.

"Manchester United leads Arsenal 1-0 away from home! The game has only started for 17 minutes!"

"Arsenal, which has always been ahead of other teams, finally tastes being ahead this time!"

"This penalty kick is undisputed. Rooney endured huge pressure and scored the penalty calmly! He is indeed a superstar!"

"Arsenal has Yello! But we at Manchester United are not weak either, we have Wayne Rooney!!!"

Just when Rooney scored the penalty kick, Manchester United's assistant coach Faria was about to raise his arms and shout.

At this moment he felt himself being pushed aside, and then a figure rushed past him.

It's Mourinho!

He raised his arms and shouted, looking up to the sky and roaring!

Then he excitedly took off all his suits and threw them to the ground.

Not only Faria, but everyone on the Manchester United bench and coaching bench were dumbfounded...

Mourinho turned around, looked at a group of stunned colleagues, and then smiled and said, "What? Are you unhappy that we are ahead?"

Faria was the first to react because he was Mourinho's assistant and was naturally the most familiar with Mourinho's style of doing things.

So he immediately found the reason for Mourinho's abnormal performance during this period in his mind - he was deliberately pretending to be cowardly, just for this moment! In order to make Arsenal think that Manchester United is no threat!

This guy even deceived one of our own people!

After reacting, Faria laughed and rushed out of the coaching bench, and then hugged the excited Mourinho.

Not only Faria and the others, the television broadcast also captured this scene.

Mourinho's rush to celebrate was so crazy.

Others would have thought it was someone else if the television broadcast hadn't quickly given him a close-up shot.

Mourinho was visibly excited.

"This one……"

Most commentators don't know what to say.

There are still smart people who react quickly.

They connected Manchester United's performance in this game and Mourinho's performance at this time with his previous performance, and they knew what was going on with just a brief analysis.

"Mourinho fooled everyone!"

"This is normal, haha! This is Mourinho!!"

"Mourinho successfully deceived his team and also successfully deceived Arsenal. Let's see the expression on Wenger's face..."

The TV broadcast quickly cut to a close-up of Wenger.

His face looked very ugly.

When Rooney scored a penalty for Manchester United and was about to send Alderweireld a red card, he didn't realize what the problem was. He was just depressed about his team's bad luck.

But when Mourinho rushed down from the coaching bench, he reacted instantly - Mourinho was demonstrating to himself and Arsenal!

Do you think I surrendered and gave up?

Now look who the hell is laughing at who! !

Wenger felt that he had been slapped in the face by Mourinho, and half of his face was in pain.

He has to admit that he did underestimate Manchester United and Mourinho!

So this slap in the face left him unable to say anything. He had no excuses or reasons, so he could only bear it on his own.

Now all he has to consider is how to reverse the unfavorable situation. First, he has to replace a central defender, but who will he remove?

Everyone in Arsenal's frontcourt attack combination is very important, and no one can be replaced casually.

No matter who he replaces, Wenger will have a headache.

In fact, the Manchester United players were stunned.

Many people looked at each other in confusion.

It was the veteran Rooney who was the calmest. He ran towards the coaching bench again and towards Mourinho.

The other players also reacted later - isn't such a passionate head coach what they have been looking forward to?

It seems that Ferguson is not really saying that he has no confidence in them, but is just putting on a show!

In this scene, he not only deceived them, but also deceived their opponents.

Otherwise, how could Arsenal have given them a chance to counterattack so easily during the game?

Want to understand the boss's good intentions, while these people feel guilty for doubting and being dissatisfied with Mourinho, they also admire their boss even more. For the sake of the team's victory, he actually deliberates to such an extent and endures In spite of everyone's scolding, I endured the infamy.

Isn't it just to get this opportunity back?

Thinking of this, everyone's belief in defeating Arsenal became even stronger.

No matter how high the price is, no matter what means are used, we must win!

A group of people followed Rooney back and then pounced on Mourinho. (End of chapter)
